Getting the wrong person pregnant look like hell 💀
Faizon Love starred in Elf, a movie that made more than $200 million. His ex says he owes her about $250,000 in child support. He told the court his best year in the last five paid him $13,000.
For 2025, he says he made $0.
He told the court he lives on about $10,000 a year in Elf royalties.
A court ordered him to pay $2,500 a month. Tiffany Lee, the mother of his daughter, says the unpaid total is now about $250,000.
A judge held him in contempt. He was arrested in California and booked into a Tampa jail on June 16. He walked out June 19, after 16 days behind bars in total.
He showed up to court in a wheelchair. His lawyer told the judge: "He was homeless. He lived in his car."
Faizon says the debt was stacked before he ever had a chance. He says she told him she was pregnant five days after a one night stand, and that she was married with four kids at the time. He says she only filed after her divorce, and the court billed him back to when his daughter was one.
In the video below, he explains how it works:
"When you start child support, you start in arrears."
"So you owe child support from age two till seven?" "No, from one."
"It's not fair."
So did Faizon Love get buried by a system that billed him for years he says he wasn't even allowed in, or did he just stop paying for his own daughter?
